No Budget, No Pay Act

This bill requires Congress to pass the annual budget resolution and all funding bills by October 1 each year. If Congress misses this deadline, members of Congress (excluding the Vice President) would not receive salary for the period of non-compliance, and this pay would not be retroactively issued. The Budget Chairs of each chamber would determine compliance and certify pay withholding. The law takes effect on September 29, 2027.
